How to Draw a Tulip

Hello, dear readers of DrawingForAll.net! New drawing lesson is waiting for you, and today we will show you how to draw a tulip.

We would like to remind you that this is not the only drawing lesson about flowers on our website, we also have a drawing lesson on how to draw a rose. So, let’s start the lesson on how to draw a tulip!

Step 1

According to the idea of our artists, tulip in our tutorial will look like a plant in a flower bed with a pair of buds, leaves and stems. Stard drawing with lines of the stems and buds – these lines should be smooth and light. First draw curved lines of stems, then draw the lower parts of buds.

Step 2

It seems, that in this step is a lot of lines, but if you follow the correct sequence, you will not get confused. Add a few lines to the buds. Then draw the stems (draw another line near the line of the stem from the previous step) and working on leaves. Using curved lines draw the leaves.

Step 3

In this step of the tutorial on how to draw a tulip we draw petals. Draw them using smooth and curved lines, as in our example. Please note that the lower bud blossomed more than the upper. And don’t forget to draw the stamen inside the open bud.

Step 4

In this step we make our tulip a little more realistic, by adding some shadows. Let’s imagine, that the light falls on the tulip from above, thus, we will understand where to add shadows. Namely, on the lower parts of the buds, the upper parts of the stems and the flaps of leaves.
